Recommended Posts

Here come the free character transfers for the US and OC servers, as they've gone live now and you can move your characters from the selected realms below! The previous moves seem to have helped matters, as queues have been reduced on those realms.

The rollercoaster of layer additions and removals continues, as Classic isn't quite done with them yet! Many players have been asking for their return in the wake of queues and it seems Blizzard agree, as the Arugal and Faerlina get theirs back, after Herod and Whitemane got theirs the same back on May 28th.

At this time, we’re enabling a second layer for the Arugal and Faerlina realms, in order to alleviate recent, unexpected queues.

The Advanced Logging feature was improved to better track World Buffs! We also recently heard one of the original WoW designers talk about the intention behind World Buffs, and you can check that out here.

WoW Classic
When using Advanced Combat Logging, the presence of various world buffs (e.g. Rallying Cry of the Dragonslayer) will now be consistently recorded when starting a raid encounter.

It seems DesMephisto isn't the only one speeding to max level, as a Classic record has been broken! TommySalami has managed to get from level 1 to 60, completely on his own, unaided, in almost exactly 2 days (48 hours, 17 minutes, to be exact)! He has the entire journey chronicled in a video series on his twitch page, with a combination of solo dungeons and open world mobs, and a whole lot of AoE, with the below final ding coming in the 15th installment of the series.

As you can see, he finished off his run in the "secret" and hard to get to Shatterspear troll village, for a higher mob density and a lot more privacy than other zones. He actually beat his previous best (which is still listed as the fastest over on Spedrunners), by a whopping 25 hours, which is quite a lot of progress in one go.
In any case, congratulations to TommySalami!

The mono-class raids are back in full swing it seems, after yesterday's (almost) all mage Ny'alotha, except this time it's on Classic (and there's not that 1 Demon Hunter a lot of the other "mono" raids tend to use, which would be somewhat difficult to pull of in Classic anyway). Хасу (Hasu), GM of <Нам Везёт Мы Играем> took 39 more shamans into Ragnaros' lair and came out victorious!
The full clear took them around 3 hours, with the DPS consisting of mostly elemental specs, the tank obviously being enhancement, and the fights starting at 8 restos and ending at 12 at Majordomo and Rag.
Here's the full Ragnaros run, and you can check out the rest of the raid by skipping through the VoD. Enjoy the FULL RP section, in Russian, because I'm feeling cranky!

And here are some comments from one of the raiders, from before the run took place:

And here's another shaman art piece by Peter Lee, because Tauren shaman > all! And also because I couldn't find the author (D.H.) of the header image to source it.

Blizzard has enabled a second layer for Herod and Whitemane in the North American region.

Over the next few minutes, we’re enabling a second layer for the Herod and Whitemane realms. This is a step we’re taking very carefully to make it so that players can enjoy playing on those realms during peak hours.
It has been a very high priority for us to understand why, after we de-layered ten realms on May 14, these two realms reversed course and experienced this, while the others did not. We will continue to pay very close attention to this situation and make adjustments to the game service as necessary.
As before, Herod and Whitemane remain restricted from the Character Transfer service.
